It's not often I post totally "clean" recipes that are dairy-free, gluten-free, and sugar-free. But here we are. So you KNOW it has to be good if I'm sharing it with you!

Years ago, I used to do these 40-day "clean" eating challenges. There were a few recipes I relied on to get me through. This vegan carrot and cauliflower soup recipe is one of them, along with my famous one-pot red lentil curry.
It's one of my oldest and most beloved recipes, and I really don't why it took me so long to share it. But all that matters is it's here now and I hope you love it as much as I do!
Ingredients
Here's what you'll need to bring this vegan cauliflower soup recipe to life in your kitchen:
- Coconut oil
- One head of cauliflower
- Carrots
- Onion (yellow or white)
- Garlic
- Vegetable broth (I use two cups but you can use more if you like your soup less thick)
- Lite coconut milk (you could use full-fat too)
- Nutmeg
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
You're going to loveeee how easy it is to make vegan cauliflower soup almost as much as you love the soup itself!
- Melt the coconut oil in a large pot on medium heat, then toss in the onions, garlic, nutmeg, chopped carrots, and chopped cauliflower.
- Add the vegetable stock and coconut milk and bring the mixture to the boil. Once the soup is boiling, turn down the heat.
- Cover the pot and simmer until the cauliflower and carrots are tender. This takes about 20-30 minutes, depending on the size of your veggies (bigger veggies will take longer to cook).
- Blend with an immersion blender until the soup is smooth and big chunks are gone. If you don’t have an immersion blender, transfer the soup to a blender jug in batches and blend until smooth then return to the pot.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- You can also add more vegetable broth until you get the consistency you desire. I use two cups of broth for a very thick soup (as you can see in the pictures).
- I top mine with green onions and red pepper flakes! It's also excellent with some fresh bread or crunchy crackers!
